Breaking: Florian Wirtz Joins FC Liverpool in a Blockbuster Move! 🤯
Leaving at 16:33, Florian Wirtz embarks on his journey towards the future.
German sensation Florian Wirtz has reportedly swapped Bundesliga for Premier League stardom, with reports suggesting he's now undergone a medical examination ahead of a sensational transfer to FC Liverpool.
According to popular German media outlet, Bild, on March 24th, 2023, Wirtz boarded a private plane from Cologne airport and jetted off to Manchester before heading to his new city, Liverpool, for a medical check. These checks typically precede significant transfers and typically happen before any official announcement.
The deal for the 22-year-old attacking midfielder, currently with Bundesliga club Bayer Leverkusen, is a record-breaker in the making, set to surpass both club and league records. The fee could reach up to a mind-boggling €185 million (~£160 million), making Wirtz the most expensive signing in the history of both the Premier League and Bundesliga.
Liverpool's Next Superstar?
Wirtz's impressive skillset and successful tenure with Bayer Leverkusen have attracted attention from top European clubs, including FC Bayern Munich, but it appears that Liverpool has won the race to sign the prolific playmaker.
Sources suggest that Wirtz has agreed to a long-term contract with Liverpool, worth a reported £200,000 per week, and has committed his future to the Merseyside club until 2030. With high hopes of adding trophies to the club's storied history, Wirtz is eager to embrace the challenge of the Premier League and aim for footballing greatness alongside his new teammates.
Sights Set on Alexander Isak?
While FIRST things first for Liverpool, with the impending arrival of Wirtz, recent rumors point to the Merseyside giants turning their attention to yet another high-profile transfer. According to reports, Liverpool is said to be preparing an offer for former Borussia Dortmund striker, Alexander Isak, who now plays for Newcastle United.
The proposed transfer fee is rumored to be a staggering €208 million (~£175 million), including potential bonuses. In what would be another statement transfer, Liverpool, it seems, is gearing up to make waves in the footballing world once more.
While no official comment has been made regarding the Isak transfer, the focus remains on Wirtz's successful transfer and his integration into the Liverpool squad under the management of Arne Slot.
